*The Death of a Thai Godfather *is a fictional story spanning three generations of the Parin family in Bangkok and northern Thailand.
While the word mafia conjures up, in the minds of most readers, images of rivalries and violence among powerful families, Thai mafias are somewhat different.
While often more violent and ruthless than their American or Sicilian counterparts, they have even stronger views on close family ties and unquestioning loyalty than other mafia families.
Different cultures; different ideas of what a mafia really is.
We see the changes taking place within the Parin family. There are surprises at every turn of the plot. Will this family succeed in its desire and need to reform or will it become even stronger and more powerful politically in Thailand?
